German Red Prince

"Damn it, I didn't realize we'd missed one!"

The three robbers walked towards the door. "David, well done."

As they reached the door, the three noticed something was amiss. Why did David seem to have grown taller?

"Get down!" Thorne shouted from behind. Dudman shielded Hannah and made her lie on the ground. The MP5 was known as an anti-terrorism weapon with an extremely fast rate of fire.

The MP5, equipped with a silencer, instantly knocked out the three robbers inside the house, and the group went into the room.

“Hey, fellow citizens, we are government officials, you are safe,” Thorne said to the people inside the house.

"Watch out, there's a bomb here!" someone shouted.

"Damn it, these people are so cruel!"

Thorne ran in the direction the man pointed, and sure enough, there was a time bomb planted there.

Thorne was sweating profusely and taking deep breaths. He saw the time; there were less than two minutes left before it exploded.

There's no time to lose, we need to notify those outside to act immediately!

He grabbed his submachine gun and fired into the air, signaling the attack.

The situation was escalating outside. Felix glanced at his watch; he was losing patience.

"You've already dragged this out for so long, there's no time left!"

"Hey! Hey! Hey! We need to follow the procedures, follow the procedures! It'll be done soon, just wait a little longer! Don't rush!" the psychologist shouted, trying to persuade him.

"You've been going through procedures for hours! Are all the people in your office incompetent?!"

He was about to lash out when suddenly a gunshot rang out from inside the house.

"Do it!"

The officer grabbed Felix's hand, threw him to the ground, and stabbed Felix in the neck with the ring Thorne had given him.

"Damn it..." Felix wanted to say something, but his head was spinning and he fell into a coma.

The sniper upstairs also opened fire, taking out the remaining two robbers.

"Get out of the way!" Thorne rushed out with a bomb and threw it into the river in front of him.

"boom--"

The bomb exploded, sending up a huge column of white water.

"call--"

Thorne lay on the ground wiping away cold sweat. "Thank goodness, thank goodness," Thorne thought he was about to die.

The people inside the movie theater were successfully rescued, and the police successfully defeated the terrorists. Two were arrested, six were killed, and none of the hostages were injured. This was the first serious terrorist attack in Germany, and the rescue methods were later included in training materials for police officers.

"Long live!" cheered the citizens outside. The harrowing few hours were finally over.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Sheriff Eric also ran over. Excellent! This crisis was resolved so successfully that his resume will be even more impressive. He's definitely going to keep his job and has no worries about getting a promotion.

“Let us thank His Highness Thorne! It’s all thanks to him!” Eric pushed Thorne forward and said loudly.

"Long live your highness!"

The citizens shouted at Thorne, making him smile awkwardly and wave to the crowd.

In a room, upon learning that the movie theater hijacking had failed, a man angrily slammed his fist on the table.

"Damn it, we have to get him out of here!"

Chapter Thirty-Five: The Schermetz Family

“We don’t have time. We must act immediately. Felix and David have been captured. Who knows what they might reveal? We can’t wait any longer,” said the person sitting in the main seat.

"I heard that the prince of the Rhine Kingdom has also returned. We're going to make quite a stir this time."

The person in the main seat paused for a moment, then asked the person next to him.

"How are our people in Munich and Berlin doing?"

"Everything is normal, and we can begin operations at any time," the person beside him replied.

"Ah."

The person in the main seat stroked his chin, deep in thought.

"Are we not doing too well in Berlin, after all..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man was glared at, which startled him so much that he quickly shut up.

"Don't tell me what to do."

"I'm sorry, Party Leader."

The man quickly stood up and bowed to the front.

"Act ahead and don't waste your energy trying to save him," the person in the main seat said before leaving, leaving the people in the room looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Oh, Your Highness, are you alright?" Hamo hurriedly went to Thorne, who had returned. This was the second time he had failed in his duty, and he felt extremely guilty.

"Butler Hammer, don't worry, I'm fine." Thorne circled around Hammer twice. "See, I'm alright, aren't I? Don't worry about me."

"Your Highness, the Unity of Germany Party are all thugs, they are all incomprehensible madmen."

After Hammer finished speaking, he opened the box on the table. "Good heavens!" Thorne's eyes widened. "A Winchester M1897 shotgun!"

Butler Hammer cocked his gun and pulled out two more pistols from somewhere, sitting fully armed on a chair in the hall.

??????????

Thorne looked completely bewildered. "Huh? What's going on?"

It's normal for an ordinary butler to be able to pull a shotgun out of a box, right?

“Your Highness, don’t forget that I served in the Rhine Juggernaut Legion when I was young.” Hamor smiled at Thorne.

“The Rhine Jaeger Legion?” Thorne suddenly remembered. “The Rhine Jaeger Legion was founded by Charlemagne, the legendary emperor of the Rhine Kingdom. It is an army with an unparalleled sense of honor and has made great achievements since its establishment.”

"In the Battle of Leipzig, three hundred Jaegers fought against Napoleon's two thousand Old Guards and were all killed in action. They single-handedly held off the French reinforcements and turned the tide of the battle. To commemorate these fallen soldiers, the Jaeger Regiment has always maintained a size of three hundred men."

"I never expected that I'd be surrounded by experts, and all I can do is babble like a piece of trash, right?" Thorne said with a self-deprecating smirk.

Nothing happened that night, but Thorne was woken up by Hamor early the next morning.

"Your Highness Thorne, it's time to prepare. We are going to see His Majesty the King today."

Thorne changed his clothes, looking extremely nervous. Today was his day to meet his parents. What should he do? What should he do? If they noticed anything wrong, he'd be doomed.

Security was noticeably different today, much stronger, and the roads were cordoned off. Thorne sat in a reinforced car, protected by police vehicles in front and behind, with the royal flag of the Kingdom of Rhine flying high in the air at the front.

"It's Prince Thorne!" someone shouted. Thorne's command last night filled them with admiration.

"Long live Your Highness!" Someone on the road removed their hat in salute.

"Long live Your Highness!" A deafening cheer erupted from the crowd. "It seems Your Highness is still very popular." Hamo smiled at Thorne.

"Well, I guess so." Thorne scratched his face awkwardly.

The car gradually drove into Frankfurt, where people were already waiting.

"Your Highness, the royal family has sent people to meet us ahead," Hamo said to Thorne.

Thorne got out of the car and faced the group of escorting police officers.

thank.

"Thank you all." He saluted the police officers and walked towards the carriage in front.

"Your Highness, the Hunter Legion escorted you back to the palace. Legion Commander Victor salutes you!"

The officer saluted Thorne, and Thorne returned the salute before getting into the carriage.

"The Hunter Legion came in person? Looks like my cheap old man still cares about me quite a bit." Thorne thought to himself as he sat in his seat.

Last night's events caused quite a stir, undoubtedly making the front page of the local newspapers, which highly praised Sheriff Eric's wisdom and decisiveness, calling him the guardian of the area.

Sheriff Eric also stated that all evil will ultimately be brought to justice! He will strike hard against terrorist forces without mercy! He will eradicate all criminal gangs and provide everyone with a safe living environment. This won him widespread public support, and his approval rating soared.

The carriage continued on its way and soon arrived in downtown Frankfurt. Thorne saw many buildings along the way, and it was clearly more bustling than outside, with incredibly wide streets.

"Huh? This, this, isn't this the Monument to the People's Heroes?!" Thorne stared wide-eyed at the incredibly familiar building standing in the city center. He had seen this building countless times on television and in various places in his previous life.

Soldiers stand guard around the monument, which bears a large inscription in German: "Your name is unknown, but your deeds will live on forever!" In front of the monument, the flames have never been extinguished.

The base of the monument is also engraved with reliefs that tell the story from the founding of the Rhineland, the establishment of the kingdom, the bloody battle of the Jaeger Legion, the coronation of Charlemagne, the legend of Verdun, and the Battle of the French Air Force.

This strong sense of "knock-off" left Thorne completely bewildered. "Don't tell me that's Tiananmen Square in front of me, that would be too much."

"We've arrived, Your Highness," the coachman reminded Thorne as he was still lost in thought.

Thorne took a deep breath, stepped down from the carriage, and stood before his parents and his brothers and sisters.

"You're back. It seems you've matured a lot since your trip to Poland." Prince Otto patted Thorne on the shoulder with satisfaction. "You've become much stronger and more like a German man."

“Thank you for the compliment, Father.” Thorne nodded to Prince Otto.

"Brother Royal."

He then bowed to the young man standing next to Otto.

This is the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of the Rhine, his elder brother, Nicholas Friedrich Victor Andreas.

Andreas, as the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of the Rhine, has a good reputation and is known for his kindness and tolerance. He will likely be a good ruler who maintains the status quo after succeeding to the throne. However, the Crown Prince's health is not very good, and he has to take medicine every day.

This is a pity for the Germans, who respect the strong. So now many people are focusing their attention on Thorne, this suddenly rising prince who has created many legends in recent days. Perhaps? He can try to win him over?

Thorne, of course, was unaware of these ulterior motives. He was still carefully dealing with the situation, afraid of giving himself away.

“Oh, my dear brother.” Andreas smiled at Thorne. “How are things in Poland? Are you alright? I heard you caught a gang of thugs yesterday. I’m so proud of you.”

Thorne looked at the somewhat weak young man before him; this was his brother. Before coming, he had heard that the Crown Prince was coming to greet him personally. Due to health reasons, Andreas rarely went out, and although the doctor had advised against it, he made an exception this time to welcome Thorne.

“I’m fine, brother.” He stepped forward and hugged his elder brother. In Thorne’s memory, this crown prince was also a responsible older brother who was very kind to his brothers and sisters.

Before his transmigration, he suffered from a terminal illness in his previous life. The huge expenses had completely shattered his family. He had never experienced the warmth of a family since childhood, and finally died in despair in this cold environment.

The more you lack something, the more you cherish it, so in this life he values ​​family and friendship very much.

Back at the palace, Queen Masha was waiting in the courtyard.

"elder brother!"

A little girl ran over and hugged Thorne, her pretty face beaming with an innocent smile.

The little girl wore a white dress and light blue princess shoes, her long golden hair cascading down to her waist like a waterfall. She looked up at Thorne, her bright eyes seeming to speak volumes.

"Slow down, Sophia," Queen Martha reminded her with a smile from behind. Thorne patted Sophia's head and smiled as well; this little girl was still so clingy.

“Welcome home, Your Majesty,” Princess Anne greeted Thorne, standing beside Queen Mary.

Anne is nineteen years old this year. She looks just like the Queen, with deep and beautiful features, especially her clear eyes, which are full of lively and spirited charm.

“Hello, Anne,” Thorne nodded in response, then said to Queen Mary, “Mother, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.”

"It's alright. I've heard about everything you've been doing these past few days. Our Thorne has grown up quite a bit."

Inside the Frankfurt Royal Palace, Thorne was flipping through the kingdom's history, and the more he read, the more outrageous it seemed. The Kingdom of Rhine had been an obscure little country until that man appeared.

“尼科拉斯·查理曼（莱茵之鹰）（1782年10月1日～1840年11月2日）——在位时间：1800年1月7日～1840年11月2日 在位40年【注：正式成立莱茵王国，于1814年1月18日加冕为莱茵王国国王】”——《德意志千年——莱茵王国》

Thorne looked at his ancestor's glorious history: "child prodigy," "military genius," "born writer."

"This is too much..." Thorne flipped through the book, his brain gradually shutting down. "What kind of protagonist is this?" Thorne finally understood. This guy was definitely a transmigrator, otherwise, how could there be so many coincidences?

Can someone explain why this piano piece, "Für Anna," is exactly the same as "Für Elise"?

After closing the book, Thorne lay down on the large bed. He had to admit, the royal family was truly luxurious; Thorne had never slept in such a comfortable bed before.

Having learned the general situation of the Stemmetz family, Thorne lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. His new life had begun in the Kingdom of the Rhine.

While Thorne was still thinking about his new life, a conspiracy was quietly unfolding in the shadows of the Rhine Kingdom.

This world is not peaceful.
